Hello Everyone.
Just here to intro myself and tell you what has taken place so far.
First I finally found a great message board. Thank you.
Started Induction 3-27-2006
Female 5'3 - on a good hair day
41 years old.
Start weight 198
Now - 192
I didnt measure myself before I started. I did not have the courage to do so.
I have Thyroid problems and am on meds for that. but also I had to have a complete hysterectory 11 years ago. Not on any Hormone replacement therapy. Most people are shocked when I have said this. However after my hysterectomy I tried the shots, pills you name it to help me but I wasnt the same person. Really bad mood swings. So I decided to stop. I havent had any problems except weight gain. 2 children 18 and 16.
My first three days on Atkins were just terrible but Good all the same.
I had withdrawl symptoms from Caffine & sugar i am guessing. I was a Dr Pepperaholic
After I got through the first few days I felt my energy level go up but only slightly.
So far 6 pounds gone. I did feel it in my clothes first. Also my strips range from moderate to High - purple. Its been almost 2 weeks. I think I will stay in the induction phase longer. Also- talk about energy now. I did spring cleaning I have groaned about with JOY. My boyfriend couldnt believe everything I got finished yesterday
Anyway. Thats me in a nut shell. Thanks for listening.
